Hi all,
OK, I've installed SE 1.5.1 successfully and am trying to use the converter that's available on the download page.
Unfortunatly I'm having loads of "Notices"..are these errors, warnings or really are notices that I can safely ignore??
I'm trying to convert a large board (3300 members, 19000 topics and 211,000 posts). I've increased the CGI time out on my IIS server to 30 minutes (just incase!)
Sorry for the long post
On the very first page I get the following Notices under the proceed button:
Notice: Undefined variable: step in C:\Inetpub\forum\yabbse_1-5-1\yabbse\converter.php on line 82
Notice: Undefined variable: step in C:\Inetpub\forum\yabbse_1-5-1\yabbse\converter.php on line 155
Notice: Undefined variable: step in C:\Inetpub\forum\yabbse_1-5-1\yabbse\converter.php on line 210
Notice: Undefined variable: step in C:\Inetpub\forum\yabbse_1-5-1\yabbse\converter.php on line 367
Notice: Undefined variable: step in C:\Inetpub\forum\yabbse_1-5-1\yabbse\converter.php on line 530
Notice: Undefined variable: step in C:\Inetpub\forum\yabbse_1-5-1\yabbse\converter.php on line 899
Notice: Undefined variable: step in C:\Inetpub\forum\yabbse_1-5-1\yabbse\converter.php on line 928
Pressing Proceed gives me a page saying I'm not in safe mode.
Next page I enter the paths to the YaBB Gold install (C:\Inetpub\forum\current) and press start conversion.
Next page I get the following notice:
Notice: Undefined index: DOCUMENT_ROOT in C:\Inetpub\forum\yabbse_1-5-1\yabbse\converter.php on line 157
but I am still able to enter the path to the SE install (C:\Inetpub\forum\yabbse_1-5-1\yabbse), and the MySQL database details. Purge database is ticked.
Pressed Proceed and get a page of text, no notices
and press proceed again.
Step 4 gives a whole load of these notices:
Notice: strtotime(): Called with empty time parameter in C:\Inetpub\forum\yabbse_1-5-1\yabbse\converter.php on line 402
<usernames>
Then later on these...
Notice: Array to string conversion in C:\Inetpub\forum\yabbse_1-5-1\yabbse\converter.php on line 484
It then goes on to insert IM's and update the member tables successfully.
Pressing proceed again goes onto stage 5... <25 minutes later>
The page comes back, loads of successful message, but also with these notices:
Notice: strtotime(): Called with empty time parameter in C:\Inetpub\forum\yabbse_1-5-1\yabbse\converter.php on line 793
Notice: Undefined offset: 11 in C:\Inetpub\forum\yabbse_1-5-1\yabbse\converter.php on line 801
Notice: strtotime(): Called with empty time parameter in C:\Inetpub\forum\yabbse_1-5-1\yabbse\converter.php on line 801
over and over again
Then inserting messages (all successful)
Then some more notices:
Notice: undefined index: in C:\Inetpub\forum\yabbse_1-5-1\yabbse\converter.php on line 837
Notice: undefined index: in C:\Inetpub\forum\yabbse_1-5-1\yabbse\converter.php on line 838
several times
Then updating topics (all successful)
Proceed...
Asks me to copy the template and settings.
Copied the settings but no the template (maybe time for a change) and get these final notices...
Notice: Undefined variable: db_prefix in C:\Inetpub\forum\yabbse_1-5-1\yabbse\converter.php on line 990
Enabling Sticky Topics
